This man is so handsome, even more handsome than Shen Zefan. Why is there such a handsome man!
If he could become my boyfriend, husband...
It was obvious at first glance that he was a man with an excellent figure. Moreover, he exuded a kingly aura, and his temperament was even more outstanding than Shen Zefan.
She thought that Shen Zefan was already the best-looking among the wealthy, but she didn't expect that there was no one better looking than him.
She wanted to climb over the wall, this man was so handsome.
Shen Yanting retorted unhappily: "We've come all the way here, aren't we here for the auction, or are we here to use the restroom?"
Bai Wei: “…”
Can this person speak properly? Why does he speak so harshly?
In order to attract Si Hanting's attention, Bai Qianqian greeted Shen Yaning in a soft and hypocritical voice: "Sister Shen, I haven't seen you for a few days. How are you?"
"I'm fine. I would be even better if those inconsiderate people would stop jumping around in front of me." Shen Yaning retorted softly.
Bai Qianqian pretended to be aggrieved and sniffed: "Sister Shen, what I did some time ago was wrong. I hurt you because I wanted to help my father and brother, but...my parents are your adoptive parents after all. Isn't it a bit too much for you to treat them like this? No matter what, they raised you."
After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to flirt with Si Hanting, and said with a slightly aggrieved voice: "Sir, do you think Qianqian is right?"
Si Hanting: “…”
Probably not talking to him.
Bai Qianqian waited for a long time but received no response, so she asked anxiously, "Brother, do you think what I said is wrong?"
Si Hanting's face changed all of a sudden, his eyes were so cold that they could freeze someone to death. What the hell was this?
Qin Anlan burst out laughing.
"Miss Bai, this is not the way to strike up a conversation. This is a public place, not the kind of place where you can just mark locations..." The contempt in Qin Anlan's eyes made Bai Qianqian very embarrassed.
She is just bravely pursuing the person she likes. Isn't that okay?
She just expressed a little love, and she had to suffer such humiliation?
"Sir, I don't think I said anything wrong. What do you mean by humiliating me like this?" If she apologized like this, the man she valued probably wouldn't even look at him. But if she had the courage to refute him, would he feel that he was different from others?
"I'm just stating the facts. You can look around at the girls here who are prettier and have better family backgrounds than you. Are they as attentive to you as you are?" Qin Anlan snorted coldly.
Although Si Hanting didn't have any major problems, he was well-known for not being interested in women. His secretary room was made up entirely of men, and there were very few women who could be around him.
Anyone who has other thoughts will be kicked out.
Bai Qianqian turned her gaze to the others, but she saw nothing but contempt and disdain on their faces.
How could those people be as pretty as her!
These people don't dare to approach because they are ugly and they know it!
"Bai Qianqian, look back at your father's expression, and you'll know whether you can provoke this man or not." Shen Yaning looked at Bai Wei's charcoal-black face jokingly, which was quite amusing.
Bai Wei's face became even more embarrassed when he heard this. He hurried forward, pulled his daughter away, and bowed humbly to Si Hanting: "Mr. Si, my daughter is ignorant. Please forgive her. I will take her away now."
"Don't ever appear in my sight again." Si Hanting said coldly. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the disgust in his eyes.
Bai Wei could only take the man away with his tail between his legs. Madam Bai watched from the side without saying a word. She could only glare at Shen Yaning fiercely.
There was something important to do today. If she messed up, Bai Wei would beat her when he got back, but she still stayed obedient.
**
The Shen and Si families were both VIPs, so they sat very close together, each holding a brochure of auction items. The Bai family, on the other hand, could only sit dejectedly at the back, not daring to step forward and get in Si Hanting's way.
Shen Yaning flipped through the booklet in her hand. There were a few pretty good medicinal herbs there. She happened to need to replenish her stock. Although the prices were a bit high, they were all in short supply, so she could accept them.
Shen Zefan and Si Hanting sat on either side of her. They both noticed that she had little interest in jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. Instead, she carefully examined each of the medicinal herbs at the back.
The two of them immediately came up with an idea.
The auction officially began, and the first items auctioned were all jewelry.
Shen Yaning couldn't muster any interest.
Suddenly, Xiao Qing'er saw a pair of earrings with unique designs, which she thought were very suitable for her daughter.
So I decided to take a picture of it, because if I asked my daughter whether she liked it, she would definitely say no. If she wanted it or not, then she didn't want it. Since I was going to give it to my daughter, I just took a picture of it.
"This pair of earrings carries the designer's love and longing for her daughter. They are earrings filled with love. Starting price: 1.8 million."
Xiao Qing'er said directly: "5 million."
Shen Zefan and Shen Yaning both turned to look at their mother. The expressions of the two siblings were surprisingly consistent, as if they had been a family for decades.
Xiao Qing'er smiled softly and said generously, "I really like the design of this pair of earrings and want to buy them."
Shen Zefan nodded: "Then I'll buy it for Mom."
Shen Yanting looked disgusted: "Do I need you to pay for my wife's purchases? Do you think I'm dead?"
Shen Zefan: “…”
As long as my father is around, I have no chance at all to honor my mother.
This is very embarrassing.
"Okay then, I won't compete with you for the credit, Dad." Chen Zefan generously gave the opportunity to his father, and he would pay for his sister in a while.
Shen Qingqing chuckled on the side. Dad Shen’s family is so funny.
"5.6 million."
"Six million."
"6.5 million."
"8 million."
When the host saw that Xiao Qing'er had bid 8 million, he couldn't help but feel shocked. This pair of earrings was far from worth that price.
After Xiao Qing'er made her bid, no one else continued to bid. He quickly said, "8 million once, 8 million twice, 8 million three times, deal!"
“Congratulations, Madam Shen, for winning these earrings.”
The auction went on round after round, and Shen Yaning was almost getting sleepy waiting. Why hadn't the things she wanted been put up yet?
Suddenly, the host excitedly said, "All the jewelry, antiques, and other artworks in this auction have been sold. The last ones are eight rare medicinal herbs. If you like them, you can bid for them. The rules are still the same: the highest bidder wins."
When Shen Yaning heard this, her sleepiness disappeared instantly. She stared at the stage with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, her eyes sparkling with energy.
